When JohnnyNite Darkstone vacated the position of Emperor of The Roman Empire region, he was immediately replaced by aaminah Shikami and she was coronated Empress of The Roman Empire region last August 20, 2008.

aaminah Shikami, Empress of The Roman Empire region!

I went to the coronation to capture some snapshots but, because of the amount of people who attended the event, the sim lagged like it never lagged before. LOL!

The objects and people around me took a lot of time to rez. The event was practically over when everything finally rezzed for me.

The Coronation

The coronation was followed by a tournament and since I can’t take any snapshots I decided to join the tournament instead. Participants were instructed to go to Sparta and wait in the Arena until it’s time for them to fight which everyone did. While I was waiting there, someone started to mock my outfit which everyone there thought was funny. It was very rude and very disrectful.

I only fought once because the waiting was very long and the lag was terrible. During the fight, my opponent’s back was always shown to me but, for some reason, I wasn’t hitting instead I was the one getting hit. The only reason I could think why it was happening was lag. What I was seeing on my screen was different from what was actually happening.

Anyway, I did not finish the tournament because I have other things to do. I don’t think I can wait another two hours with those rude and insensitive people in Sparta. I’d rather spend those two hours working.

I would have loved to stay on longer and just cover the events but since I couldn’t take any snapshots (because of lag), there was no point in staying. As you can see, (photos above) I was only able to capture two snapshots which is very uncommon for me. I’ll try to capture more snapshots in future events (when it’s not laggy).
